It's been awhile since I've done a S&T post, as I don't pick up as many singles as I used to.

Below are a couple of recent pickups for my graded collection, as well as results from my last BGS submission.

Pickup # 1

Sidney Crosby
MVP Rookie - PSA 10

I'm a sucker for cheap PSA 10's, so happy to add to the PC. Just need a Ovy now!


Pickup # 2

Brent Burns
2003 Private Stock Reserve Rookie Card
Serial #/99
Graded PSA 10 (POP Report 1 of 2 graded "10")

*This was a bit more pricey, but happy to add



Pickup # 3

Ales Hemsky
02-03 UD Young Guns
Graded PSA 10. (POP Report 1 of 9 graded "10")



No explanation needed...just had to have for my Hemmer collection. :D


And below is the results of the 3 cards I sent into Beckett at the last Summit Show. Got them back last month, so pretty good turnaround time.

Submission #1

Ales Hemsky
02-03 UD Premier
Gold Auto Rookie #/25
BGS Grade 8



Okay so I know it's not a great grade, but I already knew it was going to be this or a shade higher, as it had a couple noticeable soft corners. I think they were being a little harsh though on the corner grade IMO

Doesn't matter as I only had this graded to lock away in my Hemmer collection.
This is the only copy I have ever seen, since when I originally bought it like 10 years ago.
So I consider this one a rare card and happy to finally have it slabbed after all these years!


Submission #2

Leon Draisaitl
14-15 OPC Platinum
Black Ice Rookie Auto #/99
BGS Grade 9



I honestly thought I was going to get a 9.5, but only graded it in the first place since it was serial #'d 29/99 (Jersey Number)
Here is the backside...




Submission # 3

Leon Draisaitl
14-15 Upper Deck ICE
Rookie Premieres #/99
BGS Grade 9.5



I picked this one up during his rookie season for super cheap. As we know his stock has gone way, way up since then.
I'm so happy with this grade and thrilled to have it in my PC, along with all the others.

Thanks for looking y'all....onto my next conquest.
 
Love all of them and with respect to the Hemsky Premier /25 - Wow what a rarity, who cares about the grade, still looks great in the holder and the sentimental value is worth way more than an extra half point or point on the corners.

Great show, that Burns is a gem too. Great post dude, chat soon!
 
Also, for a while I matched Crosby rookie pick ups with ovy rookies too.

I did it with the 9.5 YG
Did it with the BD in 9.5
Did it with the ultra in 9.5
Did it with the psa 10 YG

And then i grabbed a 9.5 crosby FWA. I have yet to match that one up.
